How do you quantify the non-pecuniary benefits of a pub to the local community? I was chatting to a publican in York about this and it turns out there have been some attempts.
One researcher tried to study this and found that one additional community pub closure relative to the number of pubs in a district increases an individual’s likelihood to support radical ideology.
I wrote about this and some other pub politics

TMT will chronicle my pub and cask-ale-fueled trip through England and Wales. We'll talk to publicans and breweries, drink cask-ale, stay at pubs that are also inns, hike rugged Snowdonia, and walk the beautiful Cotswold countryside.
So, if you’re curious about the past, present, and future of the English pub, be sure to follow along! The daily newsletter is set to start on November 16th and end on December 3rd.
While trying to decide where I'd be heading on my annual Thanksgiving trip, I came across an article from the BBC saying that two pubs per day were closing in England and Wales. This prompted many, many questions and the inevitable launch of my pop-up newsletter - The Morning Tipple.

Thanks for all the love on that last one! But now every other photo I’ve ever taken is really nervous 😬
Summer is objectively the worst season
Christopher Mimsbluesky is fun, threads is fun, but I don't think I'll ever forget the lesson of Twitter:
if you don't control your own social graph, someone else controls an increasingly important part of your life
This is week 56/58 on the road - this much travel really does take a toll on the body and mind. I think I’ve been feeling a little burnt out the last few days. Crappy airport sleep definitely doesn’t help.
